Description

An individual self contained chemical reaction or properties of voltagecell of a chemical battery or an individual capacitor construction isdefined here as an individual chemical cell. References to a coil orpole are defined here as being part of a the stator of a rotatingelectromagnetic motor or generator. Descriptions, drawings and otherreferences to single pole motor-generator configurations are also thedescription of distributed and overlapped windings, also described aslapped phase, lap wound stators, staggered coils group and windingscontrolled in known methods such as rotating field applications forexample 3 phase induction type configurations where groups=poles×phases,pole pitch=circumference of stator/poles.

The invention is a motor generator battery architecture for maximizingcharging and discharging utilization of the batteries in a battery motorgenerator combination and thereby reduce the time required to chargebatteries.

Each individual chemical cell has a limit to the amount of amperage ofrecharging. When the chemical cells are placed in series, the maximumamperage stays the same, it does not increase, the watts do increase andthe charge time increases therefore it takes longer access the fullpotential of a high voltage battery pack made up of many chemical cellsin series. The invention accesses the individual charging maximumpotential of each individual cell.

The invention can produce and absorb the low voltage and high amperageof individual chemical cells for propulsion and generation utility whichunexpectedly contradicts an industry wide philosophy of higher voltagebattery packs to access short term recharging battery capacity spreadacross many batteries, with the disadvantage that the existing designbattery packs usually are not deeply discharged, and are often unable toaccept regenerative braking energy recovery because the battery packsare fully charged. This invention's ability to deeply discharge and thenaccept large amounts of regenerative braking energy recovery, results inmore efficient use of the batteries carried. Therefore with thisinvention the amount and weight of batteries carried can be reduced forthe same performance. For example the invention's advantages can be usedin electric vehicles, or electric vehicles that can be towed by othervehicles or backwards driven by other rotating machines or within selfcontained vehicles containing an internal combustion engine commonlyknown as a hybrid.

Battery chemical cell voltages may be as low as 1 to 3 volts with agroup of batteries interaction with the motor adding up to hundreds ofamperes, it is unexpected and unperceived to operate at such low voltageand high amperage.

Other prior art methods such as “cyclo converting” in U.S. Pat. No.6,124,702 require switching of the coils between series and parallel tomake changes, this invention is completely independent of grouping coilsand batteries by switching. The 2 or many more individual coil andbattery combinations are only interconnected by logical command notdirectly connected to the operating voltages of the coil and batterycombinations.

The motor generator battery architecture and type and methods ofelectrical control can be synthesized by logical commands ofindividually independently enabled pole, controller and batteryconfigurations. Therefore the motor generator battery architecture canadapt to a variety of external electrical inputs and outputs.

While the motor-generator is still in operation, individual cells can beremoved from discharge so as to be protected from over discharge cellreversal damage. Individual cells can be charged while other cells arebeing discharged all while the vehicle is still in operation. Anindividual cell can be protected from overcharge while other cells arebeing charged. The motor-generator battery can continue to functionusefully with failed or inoperative poles. Single failed pole batteriesor controllers can be individually replaced, avoiding motor replacementcosts and delays and shipping. In some designs ‘stator’ pole coil(s)could be changed without rewinding an entire machine stator, as the polewindings are not interconnected inside the motor-generator. In existingdesigns a single chemical cell failure or controller failure can disablethe vehicle and require replacement of entire battery packs, controllersor motor-generators.

The invention reduces the distance of connecting wire and thereforereduces collapsing field controller switching flyback inductance betweenbattery, controller and coil. Long conductors may induce currents uponfield collapse, which may destroy switching components and force the useof protection capacitors to absorb the collapsing field energy. Voltagemay drop on the rise of current and rise on the drop of current due theinductance of the conductors. Long cables are heavy and may consumeprecious or semiprecious metals. Long cables get hot, waste energy andmelt. In the invention the high current goes over a short path, and manypaths distributed for cooling with large surface area to watts conductedas compared to few large cables. The short distances reduce wire heatinglosses from ordinary conductor resistance and save vehicle weight.

The inventions allows distribution of controller and batteries aroundthe motor generator frame therefore allowing the use of a single coolingsystem that may be powered by a shaft driven fan for direct air coolingflowing over each individual component and chemical cell or its coolinginterface.

To accomplish the invention, each individual stator pole winding has itsown voltage and amperage matched battery, capacitor or storage devicepack or packs and winding system controller or controllers which aresignaled for operations and timing for the operation of all the similarother windings in the the whole Electric Motor, Generator and batterycombination without the necessity of wired interconnection of wholeElectric Motor, Generator and battery combination winding electricalpower in order to accomplish Electric Motor, Generator and batterycombination functions. Each individual winding may be connected to oneseparate controller, and to only one separate chemical battery cell withno other interconnection to other systems except a detection orsignaling method to determine controller operation in concert with otherindividual windings.

A configuration is illustrated in FIG. 1. block diagram where theindividual pole and coil 2 is connected to the individual pole control 1which is connected to the battery 3 to provide charging and dischargingcontrol and limiting as signaled by a central logical control 7 signalconnection by wire or radio or light waves or other means.

In FIG. 1. block diagram an external charging source 6 of single, doubleor three phase or DC can be stepped down and converted to the ultimatelylow DC voltage that the controller can use to charge a single chemicalcell 3 at the cell's maximum ampere capacity and speed using all theexisting means of sensing battery condition.

Also shown FIG. 1. block diagram in a generator mode the individual polecontrol 1 is able to synthesize electrical output to one or moreexternal buss connections 4 including series and parallel connections toother individual pole external buss controls in a variety of externaloutput styles commanded by the central logic control 7 including but notlimited to a simultaneous variety of DC single phase, double phase and 3phase.

FIG. 2. block diagram illustrates individual windings chemical cells (B)in parallel with each chemical cell having its own separate controller(C) which would allow the advantages of chemical cell voltage operationwhere combinations of motor generator shaft speed and diameter and powerwould best be applied to more wattage and amperage than an singleindividual cell could accommodate.

FIG. 3. block diagram shows a single pole location 2, where there aremore than one coiled separated individual pole windings which areattached to individual chemical cells with each chemical cell having itsown separate controller (C). This configuration allows synthesis orinverting of of DC into AC by the overlapping of square wavesmagnetically summing into a ziggurat pyramid shaped imitation of asmooth sine wave at a controller frequency as low as the square wavegenerated itself. In contrast many other controllers and invertorsswitch at radio frequency high pulse speeds to create a sine wave whichhas switching and magnetic heating losses and interference with nearbyelectronics. However the overlapping square wave method has differencesin on off timing that causes one coil in the multi coil pole to inducevoltage in the other dormant coils which accidentally act astransformers sending power back towards the other coils controllers andcounter productive magnetic fields at inappropriate times. Trapezoidalor other wave shape with simultaneous synchronized control could beavoid these problems of a shared pole winding.

FIG. 4. block diagram shows where combinations of motor generator shaftspeed and diameter and power could be best be applied to wattage andamperage of a large single individual cell such as a large lead acidboat battery by having more than one individual pole windings 2 andcontrollers 1 that are a subset of the total windings around amotor-generator stator attached in parallel to a single individualchemical cell (B).

FIG. 5 block diagram illustrates another configuration where more thanone individual pole windings wound in the same electric polarity areconnected to a controller (C) which is connected to a single largeindividual chemical cell (B) which is a subset of the total stator framewindings partially shown 9 and partially shown rotor 10.

The batteries and controllers could be spaced around the motor in amanner similar to the evolution of the radial piston aircraft engines ofincreasing piston numbers with the engine shaft mounted fan or turbineproviding air cooling. Or the wiring and controller and batteries couldbe exit the motor generator parallel to the shaft for a coolingarrangement of a long tube similar to the history of the radial or axialflow jet engine. The rotor could be held in a non magnetic vacuumchamber for reduced rotational losses in a augmented flywheel motorcombination.

Nothing stated herein precludes or excludes other combinations andarrangements of the methods and mechanisms disclosed herein.
